YES YES YES
One of my RN supervisors is a grandmother........twice. Her 2nd grandbaby was born 2 weeks before her 1st grand baby turned 1! her daughter did not believe that she could get pregnant breastfeeding. We just laughed when we realized that for 2 weeks out of the year those kids are going to be the SAME AGE!!!

It's true that a woman can get pregnant while breastfeeding HOWEVER, your ovulation can often be pushed off if you are doing all of hte following: EXCLUSIVE breastfeeding including cosleeping, feeding through teh night, and feeding on demand; keeping the baby close to you throughout the day and night and not being away long; not starting solids until at least 6 months and then continuing to bf even after that.
That said though, if you are at all concerned you should be using birth control and although I know a lot of people are okay with it, I would not suggest the pill. I spent a lot of years on the pill and think it has it's place especially since it helped me with endometriosis and probably played a part in helping me get pregnant when I was ready, however I don't think there are enough studies out to show what will happen to our children who have been bf while we were on the pill.

Breastfeeding, though it acts as a type of birth control, isn't going to stop pregnancy if there isn't some other type of birth control involved. Even with other forms of birth control the chance is still atleast 1 percent. Just be careful. Breastfeeding (exclusively, and quite a bit during the day) can be a good type of birth control but don't rely on it alone.

Now everyone can cure infertility using this natural remedy http://pregnancyhelps.info
infertility can run in the family and one of the first things the doctor asks you when you go to a fertility clinic is your family history regarding cases of infertility or other reproductive issues.
If infertility is caused by genetic disorder then it's not unusual that one of the kids (your mom) doesn't have it and another does (your aunt).
two months of trying is still to early to be concerned about the fact that you might be infertile and it's also quite early to go to a fertility specialist. Go to a regular Obgyb to get a closer insight and see what ways there are are to improve your fertility rate.
Also remove alcohol, caffeine and cigarettes from your life because they might influence your chances too. Stress is also a risk factor when it comes to infertility.

When you can't get pregnant, and things look good from the outside, it can be extremely frustrating.
The first thing to consider is how long have you been trying. About 80% of couples will get pregnant after six months of trying, and about 90% will be pregnant after 12 months of trying to get pregnant. Anyway this is a great methid to get pregnant fast https://tr.im/171f0

Yes you can still become pregnant, breastfeeding is not considered as an effective birth control!

Yes! Although I breastfed exclusively, I started periods and ovulating at 4 months.
